These readings are for your daily prayer and Scripture reading for this
season of Lent. They are chosen to compliment the readings for each
Sunday. I believe that any time you read Scripture, the Holy Spirit can
speak to you, but I think you will get the most out of these Scripture
readings if you read them thinking about Sunday’s Scripture readings,
and if you read as many as possible.
These are the readings that we will use for our daily telephone prayers
at noon (you can find the text of the daily prayer hereTo participate call 218-632-0550 and enter Access Code 302445#). If you are praying on your own, you will know that you are
still reading in unity with others.

Deuteronomy
16:1-8

Observe the month of Abib by keeping the passover to the LORD your God,
for in the month of Abib the LORD your God brought you out of Egypt by
night. 2You shall offer the passover sacrifice to the LORD
your God, from the flock and the herd, at the place that the LORD will
choose as a dwelling for his name. 3You must not eat with it
anything leavened. For seven days you shall eat unleavened bread with
it — the bread of affliction — because you came out of the land of Egypt
in great haste, so that all the days of your life you may remember the
day of your departure from the land of Egypt. 4No leaven
shall be seen with you in all your territory for seven days; and none of
the meat of what you slaughter on the evening of the first day shall
remain until morning. 5You are not permitted to offer the passover sacrifice within any of your towns that the LORD your God is giving you. 6But
at the place that the LORD your God will choose as a dwelling for his
name, only there shall you offer the passover sacrifice, in the evening
at sunset, the time of day when you departed from Egypt. 7You shall cook it and eat it at the place that the LORD your God will choose; the next morning you may go back to your tents. 8For
six days you shall continue to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh
day there shall be a solemn assembly for the LORD your God, when you
shall do no work.

About Kindred

Kindred is a way of life. It’s not something you “go to,” it’s something you are a part of.

We believe that God is on the move in Montrose, in the greater Houston area, and beyond. We want to join in. It’s that simple. The implications of following Jesus are complex, but the church doesn’t have to be complicated. We get to join God in the creation of a community that equips and empowers people to love as we have been loved, to recognize the divine in the daily, and to be a light for justice and peace in our sacred city.

We are a ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and we are a “Reconciling in Christ” community (a formal way of saying that people of all races, genders, gender identities, abilities, sexual orientations, fashion sense, and political leanings are not only welcome, but embraced).
